Even with hboot 1.50 u can get cm7. Look in the Dev section at the stickies. Theres a tutuorial to flash certain Roms with your situation.

If you are already unlocked and running Synergy, I would assume that you have read the procedure on how to flash ROMS/Kernals. Flashing CM isnt any different that I am aware of. Though I havent flashed a direct version of CM, I did flash the "secretpartymeow" ROM (which was a CM ROM) that was floating around here in late October. Look for the CM thread in the dev section, downlad it, then flash it.

Cm7 only for CDMA evo
Sent from my HTC EVO 3D X515m using XDA Premium App
don't worry about S-OFF - you can do everything *except* flash radios with S-ON.
Soon we'll all have S-OFF... but for now it's only a minor speedbump
I went through and found it but the link isnt workin ne more
When i try flashing cm7 it stays on the htc screen and dont change so i wiped and reloaded synergy idk what i did wrong and i have sprint so it should be cdma not gsm

I just got a new 3d as a replacement for my EVO 4G. I'm looking through the dev section and I'm a lil confused about the cdma and gsm sections? I thought sprint was cdma? Help please...thanks in advance.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
the CDMA section is for you..
If you just got the E3D you probably have HBoot 1.50 so you need to HTC unlock it to root and install roms...if you are lucky to have something in the 1.49.xxx then use revolutionary for a full S-Off
only difference is that you cannot flash splash screens with HTC unlock & to flash kernels and radios is a pain, with S-OFF no restrictions
Ok. Thanks very much. I just put it in bootloader and it said I had 1.4.

wow you are very lucky, people would kill to have that lol your life is 28213829332 times easier now.

I have GSM so im not sure what is good and not but i know for sure 1.50 is doomed....go on that site and follow the directions (pick your devuce, insert serial, etc..) and in the drop down box hope your Hboot is there
good luck !
I think only 32 times easier. 1.5 is not that bad.
OK, Im ready to root my new EVolTE, whats the best method to root giving me S-OFF? I might not flash any rooms for now, but will root just to get tether.
Any advice?
rooting
Right now the only way to get S-Off is to go to HTCdev and get it there, but that isn't "true" S-Off from what I understand, and rooting and S-Off are 2 diff things, to actually root get on youtube and search rooting evo 4g lte, there is a great vid there on how to do it, make sure you have a unzipping program first. it's a piece of cake
S-Off hasn't been officially hacked yet.
Hope this helps

Evol lte doesn't have s-off yet. You can gain root without flashing anything and htcdev is so can install a custom recovery, which gives you ability to flash a rom.
I've been wondering about this myself. I haven't even seen any word on whether anyone is working on getting s-off for this thing. I've been hoping for CM9 to come to the new EVO eventually. Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you need s-off to flash AOSP? If that's the case then they probably wouldn't even start work on it until someone finds a way to get s-off. I just miss CM7 from my OG EVO and unfortunately there was never a fully working version for the 3D. I really considered getting the Galaxy Nexus but I couldn't pass up the HW specs on this thing.
HTC dev unlock is enough for aosp kush has a cm9 wip that boots

Also imy guess to get s off will be similar to the junopbear method or.whatever where we have to short out the emmc by grounding it but idk if that same exploit would s off the bootloader ...

We don't need s-off as much now. We can do a lot with the htcdev unlock. It will be nice to have though.

Yeah been wondering the same thing. I remember when the 3D came out we had a few bounties, two or three different teams and numerous individuals actively trying to get S-Off. Haven't heard from anyone trying to accomplish it for the EvoLTE.
s-off isn't needed, we can flash kernel and radios right thru recovery now, the only thing we can't flash are splash screens which isn't a big deal at all..

From what I remember from my OG EVO & 3D, I thought it was a pain in the butt & took a lot more steps to do as opposed to flashing those things with S-Off.

One thing i don't understand is right on htcs website in the faq it talks about how the bootloader still has security enabled to protect the radios. If that's true how is it that we can flash radios? I thought htc specifically blocked that with their method.

I'm having to come over via insurance and the 3d is what I get. I have a few questions. Is obtaining root on the 3d a difficult process, as doing it on the 4g was simple. Ive noticed that there are 2 different models. CDMA or the other one which one is the one being given out. And overall how has everyones experience been with this phone. Thanks in advance for any feedback.

If your hboot is 1.4, you can root with Revolutionary. If it's 1.5, you will have to use the hboot downgrade method, found in the stickies.

If you're on Sprint, you have the CDMA version.
It isn't hard at all, if you understand adb. You can root with revolutionary on hboot 1.4 or downgrade if you have hboot 1.5. If you dont want to downgrade try the juopunutbear tool for s-off. It work the first try for me.

You can also go to HTCDEV.COM. They are very good in helping you unlock your bootloader

Welcome bud, I also got an evo 3d through insurance. Although I think the 4g had a better camera and I miss the looks, the 3d is a lot faster and has a much better screen. I've learned to love it.
Easiest way to do things is follow the htcdev.com unlock process to unlock the bootloader. Install superuser of course, then get 4ext recovery. There is a free version but I would highly recommend getting the paid version as I think it includes the app that lets you control everything from outside recovery. This has a smart flash feature for those who're left with s-on from the HTC unlock and hboot 1.5. It will let you install kernels like you normally would through recovery.
Only problem is, with any sense 3.6 ICS Rom you will have to use chads HTC leak kernel or else you will get boot loops. However 3d and USB mount won't work but you can always mount through recovery.
If you don't want to deal with all that, you can try the wire trick method to get s-off on hboot 1.5 so you can use the stock kernel on sense 3.6. It's stickied here in development. Hope all that helps.

Don't misinform. I'm using stock HTC 3.0.16 kernel. Boots perfectly.
EDIT: Didn't read that last part. The reason people were getting boot loops, I believe, was the outdated adsp.img.

Looks like you don't have hboot 1.5 and are s-off...that's why. I was going under the assumption that every 3D is coming with hboot 1.5, and has for a while since I got mine back in november with 1.5.
So did they finally run out of the og evo? They are replacing them with 3d's

The thing about the 3d is that its a way better phone than 4G. Except for camera of course. But I think all the 3d's come with S-on and H-boot 1.5. HTCDEV really helped me out. When u root, try WarmTwoPointThree ROM. Even faster loadup time and comes with beats audio
Thanks for the feedback.. Im not going to lie. I love my ole evo but the last time I dropped it Did something to the Battery. I have a 3500 ex battery that if in the phone it will shut off every 10 to 20 mins. that and the charging port is failing. At least I get another HTC.
Just wondering if anyone knows any news about the s-off exploit for 1.22.651.3 are they still working on it or did they give up? I can't stand not being s-off its driving me nutts! I guess I Dont mind using fastboot to flash boot images, and other stuff. I just wanna be able to flash everything from recovery like I did on my OG EVO 4G...

Only the original hboot has been exploited.
Yeah I know, but do you know if they are working on one for the 1.22.651.3 hboot?
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
No one will give a definite yes or no because users tend to pressure developers. If anyone is working on it, we won't know until they feel confident that it works well enough to warrant an early release (alpha or beta)
According to one of the devs in the official lazy panda thread, it's not being worked on because they don't have a phone with one of the newer hboots to work with. If someone were to donate one to them, they might take a crack at it...

It's 1:22am now, I've been working on my brother's EVO 3D for the past 4 hours, i'm tired, i'm sleepy, and i'm angry.
I've rooted and S-OFFed several HTC Desire Zs and HTC Desires, I've rooted two HTC One Xs, a Nexus 4, and an EVO 3D.
My brother is now on Cobra ROM (or something) running ICS, he wants JB on his phone, and to do that, all ROMs require S-OFF and the older 1.49 bootloader
I've tried every way on earth to downgrade from 1.52 (i think) to 1.49 to S-OFF and every methode i try, HTC puts a wall in front of me.
So please answer this clearly: is there any way i can run an AOSP JB ROM on the HTC EVO 3D without bricking/hotwiring the phone?
EDIT: I'll try the wire trick tomorrow to see how that works.

Ive had the same issues with my phone!! Im a newbie and dont have near as much experience as you do, but ive discovered that the seemingly possible solution is to continue on with the wire trick so you can be s-off and downgrade the hboot, which 2 whole processes within themselves.
Hope i could help any
about the wire trick, that HTC EVO 3D doesn't have those two holes, and doesn't have the sdcard above the battery, it's under the sim card... any way to make it work that way?
